Once upon a time this apartment was furnished with love. Sadly, it seems to have become more of a bric-a-brac shop and storage area. The bed was falling apart, a foldable spare bed clogged up the little space that was left. Do yourself a favour and avoid bruised legs and switch on a light at night should you need to get up. The decor is something you can live with, the dirt, grime and cob webs less so. At least the floors were clean and the bathroom had had a wipe. The kitchen area, however, was caked in old grease and dirt. And don’t dare look into the oven.
With a little less clutter, cleaning could be made easier and guests could dare to cook.
The apartment’s saving grace is the little, very private balcony with it’s beautiful view. After a while you also get used to the seagulls coming to visit. (Which is a little unnerving at first).
As there only seem to be the roof tiles and the wood panelling between the apartment and the gulls, it is very noisy with the patter and squawking of these huge birds - day and night.
City noises are faint, so at least you can get away from human noises.
Shutters don’t close properly, again, with a little love for the apartment, this could be easily fixed.
Communication was fine at first, but once money had been exchanged, there was no interest in answering questions with advice.
As Milkana speaks neither English nor German, this happens through a third party who relays the questions to her. Possibly any friendliness is lost in translation. The apartment is hard to find, any online maps app fails in the narrow alleys.
On the whole, I’m not sure how the apartment deserves 3 stars, unless it is on the merit of the balcony and the excellent location. It’s a shame, as this really could be a gem of a place if it was not just used as a money making machine.
